Status	Stage	Description
	Retrieve the Storage Devices	Faraday has asked me to recover some missing storage drives that could be used to help DiMA. They're on a boat to the southwest of Acadia.
	Return to Faraday	I've found the storage drives Faraday asked me to retrieve, and need to deliver them to him in Acadia.
		Faraday asked me to find and bring back several storage drives that could be useful to his work. I did as he asked, though he seemed disappointed that there weren't more of them.
